One person was confirmed dead and two homes were destroyed as fire crews worked to contain the Stone Canyon fire, which began burning Tuesday. Emergency crews ordered evacuation for a wide region north of Lyons. Stoked by dry, warm weather, the fire grew to an estimated 1,320 acres by Wednesday morning.
